As reported here, thousands turned out in Hong Kong to commemorate the 17th anniversary of the crackdown by Chinese Government troops on the pro-democracy protests in Tianenmen Square.
Even after 17 years, I can still vividly picture in my mind that brave young man who stood defiantly in front of the Chinese tank that was threatening the people who were protesting against their oppressive governments policies.
We need to remember this date, to stand with those who favor a democratic form of government in China.
We also need more young men and women of courage, such as the young man mentioned above, to stand for democracy in this country.
